Enid Ehrbar of the North Central Florida .Regional. Planning Council presented commissioners with an overview of regulations that are currently in place in other areas, of Florida. The presentation also defined some of the ,areas of adult oriented businesses. It also included what areas were protected by the first amendment and which ones were not. "Many parts of these businesses carry heavy first amendment protection," said Ehrbar. Ehrbar said almost every type of media and dance were covered by the freedom of expression law. While the city does not have the absolute authority to ban adult oriented businesses, land development regulations and zoning laws can severely limit them. The terms by which the businesses are defined is another helpful control the city has at its disposal. One example of this is the definition of pornography and obscenity. Pornography is defined as sexually oriented material that is lawful, but may be offensive to some. Obscene material is defined as any material that- is_ deemed unlawful. "Sometimes that definition has a vary fine line," said Ehrbar. The businesses themselves fall into two categories, off-site entertainment and on-site entertainment. Off-site businesses sell products that can be bought and "taken-home for private use. Adult oriented businesses that sell videos, lingerie or material aids are considered off-site businesses. On-site businesses' entertainment must be conducted at the business. Businesses with video viewing booths, adult theatres and those that offer live entertainment are defined as on-site businesses. The city has the power to implement restrictions that can control the time, place and manner in which adult oriented businesses may operate. "But the city must be careful not to over impose its authority,' said Ehrbar. She explained it was important that the regulations reach no further than necessary to accomplish their objective. The city must allow for a reasonable number -of sites in the city that may serve as an alternative avenue of expression. The sites the city has must also be useable. "Your land development regulations can not make whatever sites the city designates unusable," said, Ehrbar. While the sites must be available and useable, it is not necessary for them to be cheap or immediately available. The city has the right to separate such businesses from certain places in the city. "Five hundred feet of separation from any residential or sensitive use site has been found by the Supreme Court to be -acceptable," said Ehrbar. Churches, schools, daycare centers and public parks are all defined as sensitive use areas. In her presentation, Ehrbar cited two studies that concluded that adult oriented businesses have adverse affects upon the communities they are in. A decrease in retail trade, a decrease in property value and. an adverse effect on the quality of life in the community were all cited as down sides to these types of businesses. While an increase in crime was shown in some of the studies, none of it could be directly linked to the adult business itself. "Things like how late the business stayed open and if it served alcohol were factors that adversely effected the results," said Ehrbar. The presentation also included recommendations on how the city should limit the scope of adult oriented businesses. For example, if a business markets itself as a See CITY, p. 3A Allen crowned Miss Union County High By JAMES REDMOND Times Staff Writer The title of Miss Union County High has been bestowed on yet another member of the Allen family. On Feb. 4, Lauren Allen was crowned Miss Union County High for 2005. Her mother, Renae, was graced with the title back in 1978. This is the first time in the pageant's 44- year history that a mother and daughter have won the title. This year the pageant's theme was "All American Girl." In line with the theme, contestants danced and sang to the song "You're a Grand Old Flag." During the performance, each' contestant wore a costume representing the state of their choice. Allen represented Nevada, Jill Peacock chose Kentucky, Stephanie Parson represented Georgia, Twyla Seay represented Texas, Jennifer Lake represented Hawaii and Kerri Gnann represented Louisiana. The contestants were judged on how well their costume fit their state's most distinguished aspects. Parsons wore a peach while Allen came out in a showgirl's costume. Seay was dressed as a cowgirl. This was the character costume portion of the competition. Next, the contestants were. asked to show their talent for the judges. Allen performed a monologue from "My Fair Lady". Gnann used her voice as well as sign language to perform the song "Shout to the Lord". Lake performed a dance routine entitled "Cosmic Girl". After a brief intermission, the girls showed off their evening gowns for the judges. It was then up to the judges to decide which contestant would wear the crown. Individual awards were handed out while the audience anticipated the announcement of the winner. Parson won Miss Congeniality, Lake won best character costume, Peacock and Gnann tied for highest academic award, Lake and Gnann tied for. best interview, Peacock and Lake tied for best swimsuit, Lake won best sportswear and Allen won best talent as well as best evening gown. The third runner-up was Peacock, second runner-up was Gnann and first runner-up was Lake. The contestants went through a grueling schedule in order to compete in the competition. Before they could even be considered they were required to have at least a 2.5 grade-point average. Beginning in January, the girls See ALLEN, p. 4A Above; Lauren Allen performs a monologue from the play "My Fair Lady" during the 2005 Miss Union County High Pageant.

Joyce Randall,78, and Jerrod Williams, 24, both of Lake Butler, were unable to escape from their home after a fire broke out. A preliminary investigation revealed that the likely source of the fire was a kerosene heater that was too close to a combustible source. The single-wide mobile home the victims were in was believed to be built sometime in the late 1970s. Doug York of the Union County Office of Emergency Management said mobile homes built in this era are more susceptible to fires because of the materials they were constructed from. "Because of the plywood and paneling used to build these homes, they tend to burn at a faster rate," said York. York was an arson investigator for many years before coming to Union County. Some reports about the fire indicated it took fire crews as long as 25 minutes to respond to the call for help made by Randall from .the burning home. A review of the call log from the Union County Sheriff's .Office dispatch revealed that crews arrived on m ~nion )3' P Page 2A UNION COUNTY TIMES Feb. 10, 2005 LB masonic lodge installs new officers The Lake Butler Masonic Lodge No. 52 recently held ceremonies for the installation of officers for 2005.

About Freemasonry... According to Past District Deputy Grand Master Ted Barber of Lake Butler, Freemasonry is a brotherhood of men under the guidance.of God. The badge of a Masorn is the lambskin or white apron, Stefanie Parson shows she's a real Georgia Peach. Gary Dual Butler M reminding Masons of that purity Te of life and rectitude of conduct which reflects their personal relationships with the Lord, the Supreme Architect of the universe, he said. From the building of King Solomon's Temple down through the Middle Ages and now for more than 500 years in the United States, Freemasonry has been active. The fraternity was introduced to America by the French, British and Scottish military lodges. Barber said men like George Washington were Masons. Washington became a master Mason in the Fredricksburg Lodge in 1753. Benjamin Franklin, along with 14 other delegates to the Constitutional Convention, were Masons as were many of the nation's presidents. "The members of all masonic lodges strive to become better men," he said, "accepted by the Lord through His grace into heaven (or as Masons call it, the Celestial Lodge Above)." They strive to be better men and to provide selfless service to all mankind, especially to a brother Mason, said Barber. Rfe-ariiFfremaehts hahV three internal groups in most lodges. The first group is ifdtit~ffd~ 'ff'haVing' fun arid ettertainment. The second group is composed of the joiners who are satisfied with just being called a member of the greatest fraternity in the world. The third group are the workers. Barber said the workers are interested in making things happen for the good of the r lodge. They work to see the lodge grow in membership and productivity. "All three groups are very important to our lodges," said Barber. "Good leadership is able to cause all three groups to see a vision that they believe is worth working for and they come together in a synergistic way to accomplish far more than any one individual or subgroup will ever accomplish." Barber said that today in North America, the BC-UC people needed for counseling' program Terry White, secretary of the Florida Department of Elder Affairs, invites volunteers to join the award-winning SHINE (Serving Health Insurance Needs of Elders) Program that helps elders make informed decisions about Medicare and health insurance. Comprehensive training is provided.

Services are free, unbiased and confidential. Volunteers also make educational presentations to community groups and participate in local health fairs, senior fairs and outreach events.

"They could only sell video tapes and DVD's" said Erhbar. The city could also require the video store have adult oriented material in a room that had controlled access. The city could also require that the room be physically separated from any other media the store might be selling. The city could require the business to have no more than 40 percent adult oriented material. Ehrbar gave recommendations on limiting sex shops, video viewing rooms and adult theatres. The ordinance the city is currently proposing addresses many of the issues raised in the presentation. It addresses where adult oriented businesses could be located, how far they must be from sensitive use areas and how each business is defined. "It's crafted along the same lines as the city of Alachua's is," said City Manager Richard Tillis. Last year the city of Alachua had an adult oriented business try to open within its city limits. With no ordinance in place, the city had little power to regulate the nature and scope of such a business. "We don't want to get caught off guard like Alachua did," said City Commissioner Lynn Bishop. The city will take up the issue once again at its Monday, Feb.14, regular meeting. At that time the ordinance will go through its first reading. Later in the month the planning and zoning board will look at the issue as well. The ordinance will come up for second and final reading on Monday, March 14, at 5:15 p.m. at the commission regular monthly meeting.

It is hard to believe that the first semester of this school year is already over. In November, the Union County High School JROTC was in charge of the Veteran's Day memorial service. Students presented one of the most touching services that I have ever attended. The pledge, the speeches, the posting of the colors, the 21-gun salute, along with the music provided by our band, all were uplifting. Everyone who participated did an outstanding job conducting the services. Recognizing our veterans is a privilege. I am glad that we are in school on Veteran's Day so our students can be involved in patriotic activities and attend the parade. Each year I have asked our veterans if they feel that the district should have school on Veteran's Day. We all agree. The students need to be actively involved, and participate in this special day in Union County. If we did not have school on Veteran's Day, some of our students would not have the opportunity to be involved. A salute goes out to the JROTC and the Union County band for leading and participating in the Veteran's Day activities. By now you all know that our high school graduation rate increased by 12 percent this past year. Union County placed 21st out of the 67 districts in the state. We ranked first among the surrounding ,,counties.,.Congratulations., I ,would like .to thank. the teachers/staff and parents 'for encouraging our students to stay in school. It is so important for our children to graduate from high school. Students, your diploma opens a lot of doors for you. It is the first step toward a successful life. A special thanks goes to our teacher/staff and administrators for the hard work they are BUSA meets at LBES The Bradford-Union Swine Association (BUSA) will meet at the Lake Butler Elementary School cafeteria Monday, Feb. 14, at 7 p.m. Please bring a side dish or dessert that will go with pork and rice. Keep your fears to yourself; share your courage with others. -Robert Louis Stevenson ,' 4 * doing to prepare our kids for the FCAT. The FCAT Writes will be administered in February and the reading and math will be administered in March. The district purchased a new math series at all three school. The math books are aligned with the Sunshine State Standards, and will help our students be successful. Our goal is for every student to read on grade level. The district is working hard. Through the use of additional resources such as accelerated reader, the Florida Reading Initiative, and Read 180 hopefully our students will score at or above grade level in reading. Parents, I encourage you to read at home with your child. If they are having problems or they scored at level 1 or 2 on the FCAT the student should stay after school to receive extra help. We offer free after school tutoring at all three schools. If your son or daughter has passed the FCAT and they need tutoring they may stay after school for help, too. The district started early on the Florida Writes. At the 'beginning of school, teachers participated in Florida Writes training. The teachers are working hard everyday to prepare their students for the writing portion of the FCAT.

"Our honeymoon just never ended," said Richard. "It's a lot of fun." After just six months of dating, both knew the other was the perfect one for them. Even before their engagement they both knew there was something special between them. "We worked together years earlier, but I had strict dating rules," said Dale. One of those rules was not dating people she. worked with. While working at Brown Moulding Company in North Carolina, they would talk to each other on a regular basis. While both sensed that there might be just a little more than friendship between them, neither were in position to act upon it. Years later Richard moved on to a take a job with the city of Hamlet, N.C. Dale remained at the moulding company. By this time each was a recent divorcee and each was leery of getting into another relationship. "I wasn't really looking for anybody," said Richard. "But it was uncanny how we just kept bumping into one another around town," said Dale. While both had the feeling that fate was trying its best to bring them together, each was cautious about getting into a new relationship. Finally, at one of their impromptu meetings Richard invited Dale over for a drink. "Alcohol was one of the reasons my last marriage had broken up, so I was apprehensive about the invitation," said Dale. She would give Richard another reason to call on her. At the time, Richard was in the process of restoring a 1969 Porsche. Dale had overheard him offer another lady a ride in it and thought that would be a good opening. "Why don't you "tike me for a ride in your 'Pd ten s Thetime,"i asked. Dale. Knowing a good thing when he saw it, Richard qtlickly set up the time. That Saturday night was the first of many dates the couple would enjoy. "He even let me drive," said Dale.' The couple enjoyed each other's company as they drove all over the North Carolina countryside. As the evening began to come to an end, an offer of a second date had not been forthcoming from Richard. "I wondered if he was gong to ask me out again," said Dale. At the last possible moment, with one foot in the door of his car, Richard finally asked the question Dale wanted to hear. Their second. date went better then the first. Both Feb. is 'Have a Heart' month February is "Heart Fund" month, and a special time to have a noon luncheon with the best cooks in Union County.

The feelings that had been so strong just years earlier were growing even stronger. On this evening the couple would share their very first kiss. "When we kissed I saw fireworks and felt sparks, " said Dale. That kiss confirmed what they both had already known. "He stopped the car or; the Since this was the second time for both of them, neither wanted to make a big deal out of it. They came to Florida for their honeymoon. "We went to Walt Disney World," said Richard. Florida was a very familiar place to Richard. He grew up in Gainesville and graduated from Gainesville High School.

' / Page 1OA UNION CUUN-Y TIMES -eD. i0,2005 FIRE Continued from p. 1A wanted every emergency worker that responded to the call to understand he knows they did their very best. While talking with family and friends. Randall and his, wife, Mary, recalled the impact both Joyce and Jerrod had on their lives. "Jerrod just loved his music," Randall said. "I would turn the radio on and he would tap and sing to the beat." Music from the 50's and country were his two favorites, Randall said. "Joyce loved to have her family around her," said Mary Randall. Many photos the family shared showed her with her family right next to her. One photo showed Joyce, Jerrod, Mark and Mary at Seaworld in November 2003. In the photo Joyce has a smile on her face as see looks over at Jerrod Joyce frequently enjoyed the company of her seven children, 38 grandchildren and 20 great grandchildren. Family and friends were also bringing the family some needed items such as clothes, sheets and blankets. Many of thie family's belongings were lost in the fire. "We have people we don't even know bringing us things," said Mary Randall. - Dollar General, where Mary works, is helping.out as well. "The store has given me a generous contribution to help us replace some of our lost items," said Mary. A collection is being taken up at the store to help the family as well. A glass jar on the container with a sign on the front tells of the family's plight and asks for donations. Both Randall and Williams were laid to rest Feb. 9 at Sapp Cemetery in Raiford. Above: What remains of a single-wide mobile that caught on fire on Feb. 4 is shown. It believed a kerosene heater that was being used to heat the house was the source of th fire. Two Lake Butler residents, Joyce Randall and Jerrod Williams, were unable to esca the fire and perished.

Any such changes would be the decision of ,the respective county commissions (N ith approval by the Department of Community Affairs). Comments at the citizens' meeting seemed to indicate local residents are not so much worried about the studs itself they are worriedd about changes that might be made to the land use plans as a result of the study. Judge William Wilkes' indicated he felt the study was' a preliminary- action to Blanding's acquiring more land from area landowners. While Blanding has no imminent domain powers. Wilkes said changes to the , land use plan prompted by Blanding could limit the future uses of the surrounding land. "Our future grandchildren ma. .t,',,4.' qe- i. s Tg"A.. ,' "Tfor something other than agriculture." Wilkes said. "What if Blanding says the\ can't do it?" (Use the land in a wa\ that is contrary to the recommendations in the study.) In an earlier meeting. officials said any future land acquisition for Blanding would occur only if a landowner is willing to sell. Some of the citizens pointed out that if the permitted uses of the land around the base are limited. landowners might have little choice but to sell. Pickens said there is already legislation in place that prohibits the government from using land use or zoning changes to render property less valuable or unusable to the owners. Some confusion for the citizens seemed to stem from a recent purchase of land by the state in the vicinitN of Blanding. The land is intended for use as a nature reserve and is not actually part of Camp Blanding property, said officials. Sandy McArthur said he was generally very pro-Guard. "We ha'e never relied on ihe National Guard so heavily as we do today," he said. However. McArthur said since DCA approves or disapproves changes any county makes to its land use plan, he feared this signalled an increased state control over the uses that would be allowed on his property. "I want my children, 25 years from now to get the highest and best use out of our property.," he said. Bill Agricola said he is concerned that there is "..another agenda" in the background. He said he thinks this could be a move by the Department of Environmental Protection to limit the use of land around Blanding so DEP can purchase conservation lands for less money. "1 suggest you take DCA (and DEP) out of the picture and let this (study) be a Camp Blandming-Clay County (and Bradford County) issue," said -Agricola. He said he would be more comfortable knowing the local officials had more full control over the issue. Leary said he didn't believe there was any type of hidden agenda. In fact, he said, the study could lead to additional protection for the landowners as well. He said the state has been trying to create a wildlife corridor for years and the recent land acquisition is part of that initiative. It has nothing to'do with the proposed land use study, other than the fact that it happens to be located near Camp Blanding, Leary' said.

"down-zone" his land to the point where it is worth nothing more than use as a buffer. "We're all worried about our property rights," he said. "I suggest the county commission say 'no' to any change that benefits one landowner over another." Pickens reiterated that there are state laws in place that protect landowners from attempts to make their property less valuable through zoning or land use regulations., , Before she left, Fitzgerald acknowledged that many area residents were upset that the initial meetings in which Blanding outlined its hopes for a study. and possibly for a buffer zone, were not announced so that the public could attend although the media was present. "I know you feel it was unfair for them to spring this on you. The initial 'meetings between Blanding and the chamber were kind of behind the scenes but we're (counties, chambers, Blanding) all working together now with the citizens," said Fitzgerald. Pickens said he would do further research and find out all he could about the recent legislation. the proposed land use studs and how it would affect the property owners around Camp Blanding and then get back with Clay and Bradford commissioners and local property owners. "I have to study this. but you're preaching to the choir," said Pickens to property owners who were asking for diligence in protecting property rights. He said every Republican member of the House would be in fa\or of protecting property rights. "I don't think there is a hidden agenda here," said Pickens. Jennings Murrhee asked that landowners in a. three-mile radius of Blanding be notified about any future meetings where the issue would be , ....t r 7Le.r discussed. Lassiter said that was the Clay County Commission's intention. Bradford Commissioner John Wa)ne Herses said he felt his board would d be more than willing to make sure landowners are notified. Pickens said residents could call his Palatka office and voice their opinions on the issue. That number is 386-312- 2272.

Members. of .the Shands at StatKe Auxiliary do more than volt. teer work at the hospital, howt ver. .They- also, raise money for the hospital and their recent efforts resulted in a Z20,000 donation that was used to purchase, equipment for various departments. . "That's their mission, to help us here at the hosptial." said; Jeanne Baker, Shands at Starke administrator "One of their missions, in fundraising. is thati all of their dollars go back to -buN something." Some of the money was used to purchase such nenis as an ultrasound transducer, a crvo gun (used to freeze warts and lesions, for example) for Shands Medical Group and a fiberoptic scope for the emergency room which was requested by Dr. Pete Gianis. "He was excited about that," Baker said, "because that's about a $5,000 piece of equipment."

"One of the things that we forever need around here because we wear them. out are fax machines," Baker said. Two fax machines were bought for the operating room and Shands Medical .Group. Another piece of equipment the hospital wears out is a food processor. Baker said the hospital prepares 50,000 meals each year, so a new -food processor was purchased for the food service department, as was a microwave oven for the. employees. $Shands Medical Group, '% ith part of the donation, also bought televisions for its lobby, and had 19 prints in patient exam rooms framed. The prints were donated by the University of Florida v.,hen Shands Medical. Group opened.

The Auxiliary a'so operates the concessions booth in the main building at the Bradford County Fair each year. There are approximately. 75 members of .. the Auxiliary-almost half of which are "sustaining" members, Johns said.

Floridians may deduct sales tax this year As part of a continuing effort to give Floridians additional tax relief, Senator Bill Nelson helped pass .legislation last fall allowing Floridians to deduct sales taxes from their federal income taxes. , While taxpayers across the country are allowed to deduct their state income ta\es from their federal income taxes, people who live in states without an income tax miss out on this deduction. Following the costly .hurricane season and .the financial hardships many Floridians now face, Nelson worked with other members of Congress to pass a measure that '97 DODGE RAM 1500 SLT '01 CHEVY -Laraie-VS. 6 ,495 4w pd, Auto, Loaded, Orty 37M Ml A ea 399 Down' 37,00 M 5.. ...s ------------- --- .98 DODGE GR.

Assisted living represents a combination of housing and personal care services to elderly individuals who may need assistance. Assisted living fills a need between total independence and total dependence. Assisted living can deliver care to the elderly in a more cost-effective way than other elderlyhealthcare options. Su-El's Retirement Home provides this in a homelike setting. Su-Ef's services are, tailored for the individual which allows a resident to maintain independence vs. support services which allows a person to 'age in peace. Su-El's has a variety of senior housing alternates available to address the varying needs of seniors. This enables a resident to adjust and add to the list of ADL's without moving to a more institutionalized setting. We also provide Adult day-care for those times when a small break in routine is necessary. Su-El's is 45 minutes from Jacksonville; 25 minutes from Gainesville Just 1 mile South on CR 325, Hampton, Florida. "Not A Nursing Home" -.No Religious Affiliation (352) 468-2619 gives Floridians and others living in states with no .income tax the opportunity to-deduct;. sales taxes in jlieu of a' deduction for state income taxes. This move is aimed at increasing fairness in the tax code for taxpayers in Florida and other states that don't have an income tax. The legislation, known as the' American Jobs: Creation Act of 2004, allows a sales tax" deduction as an option for those who itemize their tax returns during the next two years., Under this provision, a typical Florida taxpayer could save $300 or more. Taxpayers will indicate by a. checkbox ;on line five of Schedule A which .type of tax they're claiming, and then will use tables provided by the IRS to determine how large the deduction will be. Although the law is set to expire after 2005. Nelson is hoping to make the change permanent. The IRS has several tables on its Web site for determining the ,amount you can deduct.

It was a sentiment member' Ann Higginbotham, now deceased, expressed to Pastor Rick Jackson during her first visit to the church. Since then, Jackson has heard similar statements from visitors over the years, which is good-a church should feel like home, he said. "We want people to feel welcome when they come to the , church," Jackson said. The church began when a small group of people held a prayer meeting at Bruce Jackson's house. "It kind bf grew from that," said. charter member Bruce Scott. "Wie started having (meetings) on a regular basis. Things'just seemed to fall into place." The church, with Dave McLean as its first pastor, eventually began .holding services at Southside Elementary School after 'meeting for a couple of months at Jackson's house. Services were first held in one of the classrooms before moving into the school's cafeteria. Jesse Moore, who was the school principal at the time, was of great assistance to lthe church, Scott said. He said it was Moore's ideato move the services into the cafeteria and Moore made sure a PA system See HOME, p. 2C -Ryan Southwelli. UC's Southwell plays for U.S. team Union County High School senior Ryan Southwell was one .of 36 members of the silver- ,medal United States team that finished as runner-up to Canada in the NFL Global Junior IX Championship game on Feb. 5 in Jacksonville. Souihv.well. selected to the team as a defensive linemrn. participated in three weeks of' practices at The Bolles School with other players from northeast Florida. A banquet on Jan. 31 enabled the U.S. players to meet the other players in the tournament from 'Canada, France, Japan and Mexico, "It was a great experience meeting players from four different countries and I will never forget this great opportunity I had to play against these countries," Southwell said. "Also, it was a great honor to play under (Bolles) coach Corky Rogers, and the other coaches, and to represent the United States of America." A qualifying tournament was held Feb. 2 to determine the two championship game participants. The United States also lost to Canada in the qualifying tournament, but was able to defeat France 19-0,' Japan 31 -0 and then Mexico 21 - 0, which propelled the U.S. into the championship game. Canada defeated the U.S. 38- 35 to claim the championship. This was the fifth straight year the U.S. and Canada, :played, each other in the championship game, with the U.S. ha ming won the last four. Southwell said he wanted to give a "big thank you" to his family and friends for supporting him. He also gave thanks to Union County head coach Buddy Nobles, for helping him get selected for the U.S. roster, and to Union County Superintendent of Schools Carlton Faulk for his support. The "biggest" thank you, Southwell said, goes to Marvin Pritchett.

"God used him in a special way to help other people's needs," Scott said. The school; of course, was only a temporary location. Members looked at several buildings for sale in the county before Scott's wife, Becky, saw a classified ad in the Telegraph for a true yard sale-building, land and all. That led to the purchase of the church's current building, which, at the time, was accessible via Griffis Loop. The block building had been a clothing factory, a Moose lodge and a bingo hall. Most of the work that had to be done in the building to ready it for the church's use was done' by church members. Scott said, from what he can remember, the only projects members did not do were the hanging of dry wall and the installation of carpet. The church eventually looked into buying a nearby building, with plans on using it for a- fellowship hall. The building, which was located on SR-100, was owned by a bank. The church made an offer, which was not accepted. The building was later put up for auction, but was not sold. That prompted the bank to contact the church, asking its members if they wanted to make another offer. The church wound up purchasing the building for approximately half of the original offer it had made to the bank. After that acquisition, the church was able to buy property between the two buildings and create a driveway between the two. That also enabled the church to create an entrance off of SR-100. That worked out well when the church's original entrance, off of Griffis Loop. was closed due to the installation of crossarms at a railroad crossing. "God knew that was going to happen and helped the church to be ready," Scott said. Scott or any other member of the church will tell you God has .blessed the church in many ways over the past 20 years-20 years that has gone by quickly for Scott. However, the church's longevity has not surprised him ..... "I ne\er had a doubt we wou'ld.-ba-herexe-QZ -yeas," he said. "It seemed right from the get-go the Lord blessed us.", In that .20-year span, the church started ministries at Madison Hill Retirement Center in 1994 and at Camp Blanding in 1996. ; . "In a three-Near period we probably saw over 100 people sa'ed out there," Rick Jackson said of the 'Camp Blanding ministry. - The church also holds Bible BC Pop Warner registrati under wa Registration fort ,County Pop Association is curt way for both p cheerleaders.

"We hear from missionaries that we're one of their strongest-supporting churches," Jackson said. "Here we are, a small church, -but we're very mission-minded." Jackson has been the pastor of "the church that feels like home" the past 12 years, but he had to make a return to his home before assuming those duties. Jackson was born and raised in Starke, the son of Margaret and W.T. "Billy" Jackson Sr., co-founders of Jackson Building Supply. He graduated from Bradford High School, which is where he was saved. "An evangelist came and spoke at Bradford High School when I was in the ninth grade," Jackson said. "As far as I know, that was the first time I had ever heard a clear presentation of the gospel." SJackson, after graduating from BHS in 1974, attended Flagler College in St. Augustine, where he- was - majoring in drama. It was there where Jackson was called by God into the ministry. A future as an actor was no longer part of the equation. "Now my sights were not set on the stage," Jackson said. "They were set on the pulpit." It was also at Flagler College where Jackson met his future wife, Clydie. !"She had a boyfriend at the time, so I watched and prayed. I watched her and prayed he would go away," Jackson said Bradford Baptist Church has come a long way since its origin in the house of charter member Bruce Jackson 20 years ago. with a laugh. "That worked out pretty good-we married between our sophomore and junior years." Jackson graduated from Flagler in 1978, then moved to Tennessee with his wife. He attended Temple Baptist, Seminary in Chattanooga and he and his wife both taught at Tennessee Temple High School. Unlike many of his classmates at Bradford High School, Jackson said he was not looking to leave Starke the first chance he got. However, he had settled into his home in Chattanooga, where he and Bradford Baptist Church Pastor Rick Jackson is pictured with wife, Clydie. Jackson, a Bradford County native, has been the pastor at Bradford Baptist for 12 years. i<,bote'a.'

The Keystone Heights boys' soccer team proved that as far as its coach is concerned after the Indians defeated Santa Fe 3- 2 on penalty kicks to claim the District 4-3A championship on Feb. 4 in Interlachen. Keystone, which won its second consecutive district championship, made all four of its penalty-kick attempts, outshooting Santa Fe 4-1. Goal keeper Michael McLeod made the. Indians' first attempt, followed by successful attempts from Kenny Turner, Derek Tornwall and Keith Wheeler. Wheeler's attempt actually was stopped by, the Santa Fe keeper, but the keeper was called for a foul for moving off the line prior to. the shot. Wheeler got another attempt ~q' ~ Sean Gillespie moves the ball upfield for Keystone. Gillslspie' had an assist in the win over Santa Fe. I Members of the Keystone Heights boys' soccer team proudly proclaim they're number one after their 3-2 win over Santa Fe in the District 4-3A championship match. It was Keystone's second straight district title. and found the net. s Keystone head coach Roger Lloyd, who predicted the t] Indians would not miss an C attempt, said his team puts in n plenty of practice on penalty C kicks toward the end of each a season in preparation for the postseason. 2 "When we went into penalty p kicks, what did we do? We made four straight," Lloyd said. h "That's because we've practiced almost every day over the last two weeks for this scenario." It was a hard-fought, close match that didn't show how dominant the Indians (13-5) have been in district play-they outscored district opponents 26- 3 during the regular season arid, with Friday's win, have won 16 straight district matches over the past two seasons. However, Lloyd thinks the Santa Fe match can do nothing but help his team.

If a deer, turkey, hog, or any game animal, can't see you, your chances for a harvest drastically improve. One very effective way to hide, blend in and conceal your position is to use a ghillie suit. A ghillie suit is a type of camouflaged clothing which is an outfit, coat and/or pants or even a small shawl-like covering worn by the hunter in an effort to conceal himself from his quarry while hunting. Ghillie suits are available in many sizes, shapes, colors and configurations, and they are usually adapted to the particular terrain being hunted. For example, in a snowy environment, the hunter would choose a suit in various whites and darks to blend in with the snow and trees, whereas, here in Florida, we would use -more browns, greens and drab colors. For a field or pasture, the hunter would use more grass colors, like broom straw brown or fennel green. The objective Colors are very important in concealment and so is the reflection of light lights and darks. But there rra\ be one j.:-L- even more important here. The human shape. No- matter what color something is, it may not attract attention if it doesn't mo.e. 'Ther- f.:re. :r.. g absohu, el_ stillI re-,.'; .eslp the hunter. Howe\ er, Ssomeiming else can gi\e aa\. our position... the human shape or form. H-' Vittworks... The rm.-.an shape is easy to iLienriP,. especially in a silhouette in low light conditions, such as-dusk or dawn, 'when we are usually iurincing. A good example would be how a bhaner appears up in a deer stand, in an area of tall pines, etc. The human silhouette would stick out like a cow in 'our rin -. a.a Fro.-. the deer or turkey's per pecti'e, .i is a new shape that wasn't there before and it looks like a man. Goodbye. Deer gone. Turkey I. gone. See ya. Game over. We need to break up our outlines and to blend in with the woods. The ghillie suit does break up the human pattern and causes the eyes to see more of a blurred line -.. at the edges, rather than a human shape or profile. We can be concealed from view. A homemade ghillie... I decided to make my own homemade ghillie. Such suits are almost $200 online and I had seen enough photos in outdoor magazines and on the Internet to have a basic idea of what I wanted to do. And, yes, I'd seen those movies on TV where the good guy sniper gets the bad guy sniper, both wearing ghillie suits and all camo'd out. Here's what I came up with, for materials: A couple packs of cotton fish net from the flea market (measuring about 3'-by- 5' with two-inch mesh), brown twine, about 10 burlap bags (also known as tow, sacks, jute bags, croaker sacks, etc.), two bungee cords, two packs of Rit Dye (dark green), a wash tub for. dying, a broom handle to hang the suit on while assembling and "sneaky leaves" (artificial leaves found on the Internet and attached with a safety pin). Basically, I just cut out a hole in the middle of the 3'-by-5' fish net for my head. I hung this over the broom handle, horizontally braced on two ladderback chairs. I crafted two arm holes along the line of the broom. Then I cut the burlap, into strips about two feet long and two or three inches Sit]de and tied the burlap .srips onto the lish net. starting at the bottom and v.orking mni \\\a up. That way. eter thing ro erlapped, like shingles. I had d,,ed about one half c' the tow sacks the dark greer, color. which h tas the closest thing I could tind to olihe drab This provided a nice contrast from the brown color of the L rlap and ga%.e the suii.a subtle - Tcaiouftlaged appearan'ce.- On the front side, I tied the strips all the way up and down. but on the back side, I simply tied on a piece of burlap to cover my back. I could have finished out the back with strips, but i: would lihave been very heavy. Besides, I was probably not going to be crawling on my stomach, like in the movies, so I left the back plain. This was the top piece and when it was slipped over m) head, it hung down almost to my knees. The skirt and hat... The lower piece was simply another piece of fish net, crafted the same way with attached burlap. I merely wrapped it Fins, Fur and Tales Stories from the outdoors in Clay, Bradford and Union counties, KH lifters are undefeated again ~-~~~-~~~-~~~-~ F:9 *, .,, ,. -. .., .. .

This covered me from the waist down. As for the hat, I took a camo hat that came with a veil and I[ attached a few "sneaky leaves" to break up my head , pattern. I like a hat with a brim to ' keep the rain off - my glasses. . It took me about 12 hours to make this first suit, about 10 of that was labor and the rest researching and assembling - the materials. The test... John V A friend, Brad Caouette, dropped by one Saturday afternoon and we were talking about hunting and fishing. The kids had a few friends over for a pool party and they were all out back having a fun time. Brad asked me if I had finished the ghillie suit and I told him, "Yes,' let's try it out." The kids were all playing in the pool and had forgotten about us. The cast: Victim- Ethan Crowder, age 14, ninth grader. Accomplice- Brad Caouette, Perpetrator- John Whitfield. The plot: Sneak up on Ethan. ' - I put on the ghillie suit and eased out the back door. Brad walked on over to the pool and just stood there watching the kids. I snuck up to the edge of the pool, waited until Ethan looked away, then I stood up about five feet from him. Ethan looked pver at Brad and then slowly turned and actually looked straight at me and kept on turning his head. He had apparently seen the "shape" but didn't see "me."
